Imagine the scene of a world far away
|
And we are completely unobtrusive
|
A victim of a man, with hope in his hands
|
Reaching for the stars
|
(A feeling gone)
|
Fate has another life to take
|
|
And here in a place of wonders
|
Never really all alone
|
Happy just to be a number
|
Somewhere in our world on the edge!
|
|
It's like I've heard a thousand times before
|
By the ones who always chose to ignore me then!
|
Play all the games and fear all the laws
|
That's what gives the people their meaning, they said
|
|
And here in a lifeless wonder
|
Creating endless legacies
|
Everyone pull out their numbers
|
Wait in line on the back of the edge!
|
|
I wake up every morning, watch the news on TV
|
I'm numb to all the lies everyone believes
|
I do the same things other numbers do
|
I see the same old faces and
|
(There you are again!)
|
Fate has another life to take
|
And fear has another soul to break
|
|
And here in my world of numbers
|
Embracing long gone memories
|
Waiting to be sucked under
|
Sitting silently on the edge!
|
|
I've never been one much to complain
|
I looked into the mirror
|
(And there I was again!)
|
Same old faces always seen before
|
Like a million stranded others, I don't know him anymore
|
|
And here in the world of thunder
|
Striving only to believe
|
Remaining silent for no longer
|
Screaming from my mountain on the edge!
